Ah, BlueSky has reached that special social media milestone where outlets declare it "dying" despite growing from 10M to 37M users! 📈 As one journalist noted, "being prematurely written off is a rite of passage" for social networks. Meanwhile, AT Protocol keeps spawning new apps.

For anyone that can't come to my talk at #ForwardJS in #Ottawa tonight, check out my slides and run the speaker notes through the shittiest text to speech you can find to get a similar experience.

Agreed.

There's a persistent idea in the decentralized revolution, by people who've never experience this type of harm, that if you don't like fascism, racism, transphobia, etc, you can just block.

This is a techno-libertarian worldview that lacks object permanence. It's like a baby playing peekaboo. Just because my hands are over my face, it doesn't mean that the harm disappears.

I know someone is just trying to be funny here but boy do I want to stop right there and file #ATProtocol under #techbro #bullshit ...

We're really excited to be attending ATProto London this evening!

@FreddieJ and @saskia@newsmas.social will both be there to chat decentralised social media, learn more about AT protocol, and enjoy the drinks very kindly provided by graze.social 🥂

We hope to see some of you there too!
